I know I'm in the minority here, but I really enjoyed this movie. Anybody else around here genuinely like the film? If so, what about it did you like?
For the folks who really hated it, what about it did you hate?

It was definitely not a run-of-the-mill release, and was definitely not well received. My impression of the poor reception was that people were likely expecting something a bit more serious. This one came out a few months after the well-received Iron Man, and after three X-Men films. Those ones seem to have a different tone, if you consider that The Spirit is pretty insouciant in its attempts at humor. I guess it always puzzled me that Sin City had a generally luke-warm reception, while this film was so severely looked down upon; they're pretty similar, I think.
I thought this film ended up being exactly what it was supposed to be, but maybe wasn't marketed very well. Perhaps it wasn't released at the most opportune time.
